by Alice Whitaker

SUNDAY 21st September, 10am-3pm

Come and see what goes on behind the scenes in our compound at Birchanger Wood and then enjoy a stroll around our beautiful wood as the season begins to turn.

We will have fun activities for the whole community, like crafting for children, and wood turning demonstrations. It’s completely free to attend, although donations are gratefully received. A card reader will be available and cash is also welcomed.

Our team will be on hand to explain the work that goes into protecting the wood, and we’ll have items for sale to help raise funds. And we’re always keen to hear from people who would like to volunteer with us. More details will follow soon, but for now: save the date!

Save the date! Spring Open Day

by Alice Whitaker

Our Spring Woodland Open Day is taking place on Saturday 20th April and our compound will be open from 10am to 3pm – everyone is welcome to come along! It is a lovely time to visit the wood because the bluebells will still be in bloom and the trees will be coming into leaf.

Entry is completely free and we will have free activities for children including orienteering. The Hertfordshire Wood Turners will be here to give a demonstration of their work – and will be bringing along some of their beautiful work to sell.

You can also chat to our volunteers to find out more about the wood, the conservation work that we do, and how to get involved if you would like to play a part in protecting the wood for future generations to enjoy.

Donations will be greatly appreciated to help support our work in protecting and enhancing the wood, please bring cash if you are able to do so.

More details to follow but for now, save the date!
